    It does mate, you're obviously not drinking enough.

    TBF i feel your pain mate, I've had two dislocated shoulders and that's ****ing painful and still plague me today, not much you can do about it mate apart from what the other lads have said. See a physio and bypass the local quack, they're not that expensive and if you're in as much pain as you say, it might be your best option. They helped me but didn't cure the problem totally, only eased the pain a bit.

    I see a sports physio for my back every few month whether I've got problems or not. I'd be in a right state if I didn't.

    Used to have deep muscle massages for about 10 years, every month which helped right up until about 3 months ago.

    I really for you guys, Vince, Bizarre. I know full well what you're going through.

    Oh, about chiropractors! My GP, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon and Sports Physio all take the piss out of chiro's. But I swear the one I used to see was a witch. She used to do some real weird ****, felt like nothing at all but I'd be fixed again!

    <ok>

    Yeah, I'll be there this week. I'm also going to be there for a full week, commencing the 4th of April. I've decided to take up getting my coaching badges again and I'm starting with the level 1, just as a refresher.

    It'll do you the 'world of good' you know :emoticon-0105-wink: . . . . unless you get injured tomorrow, of course <yikes>

    Just make sure that you're on my side . . . . at least I know your name (and us young-uns should stick together <whistle>)

    See you then <cheers>

    Without an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan your problem is purely speculative and chiropractic is pure guesswork (and could do a lot of damage). Acupuncture will help relieve the pain.
    There is no such thing as a 'slipped disc' (the disc cannot move but becomes inflamed and presses on the nerves running down the spine causing excruciating pain which only a fellow back pain sufferer will understand. An operation is required where a piece of the vertebrae is removed allowing the inflamed part of the disc to retreat into the cavity and take the pressure (and the pain) away. Continuing to work (as there are no outward signs many people (and practitioners) will assume you are 'swinging the lead' and tell you to 'work it off) will eventually cause the disc to prolapse and if you thought you were in pain beforehand it is nothing compared to the pain you will suffer then. This requires surgery with an operation called a 'Laminectomy' where the prolapsed disc is removed and the vertebrae are fused together.
    I suffered this many years ago and whereas I can carry out a pretty active life for a 77 year old the problem is that the scar tissue from the operation has grown like an octopus and has entwined itself around the sciatic nerves in my lower back. Some days I am unable to get out of bed but I have learned to live within the parameters of the pain barriers I have developed over the years.
    My advice for anyone suffering 'pinched nerves' dislocations' or any back problems is to find a way to get an MRI scan (I am not familiar with the medical situation in the UK but my Granddaughter (in the UK) is suffering from a disc complaint and can obtain no treatment whatsoever - I find this quite odd when thousands of people are flocking into the UK and are receiving free medical treatment - but I do not wish to harp on about that subject).
    The spine is a very delicate part of a human's anatomy and injury to it can result in becoming a paraplegic or quadriplegic.
    Please be careful and try and get some professional treatment somehow. I know what you are going through.
    Rant over - back to the soccer. (sorry).

    On the plus side, my consultant, years ago said that as I got older my particular back problems would ease up as the spine slowly fuses together.

    On the other hand I now have different back problems, to compensate <doh>

    And a did you know moment....

    The key to a strong back is a strong front! Exercising your stomach muscles provides great support for your spine! The likes of Terry and V-Joe will know that already.

    Too true. The surgeon who did my op told me to keep my weight down. In retirement I have 'overindulged' at times but take an hour and a half walk every day which is keeping it within reason.
